Li Shanchang hurried back to the camp and reported the past to Zhu Yuanzhang. However, to Li Shanchang's expectation, Zhu Yuanzhang did not become furious after listening to his narration, but instead laughed wildly.
"Shanchang, you have fallen into Yang Gao'er's trick. The two Sui soldiers who were captured by you were acting for you!"
"Am I falling into a trap?"
Li Shanchang was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly raised his hands and said: "But Your Majesty, the minister pretended to be Tian Ju and got the news from the two soldiers. They couldn't have deceived Yuan Chu's most important minister, right?"
"But what if those two people have known your identity for a long time? Maybe they were already watching you when you left the camp and went to Yuan Chu's camp!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice: "Younger Yang Gao is so treacherous. How could two mere messengers know such a secret?"
"My lord is wise!"
Li Shanchang suddenly realized it and complimented him.
"Hahaha, you are so good. Now that Lan Yu has died in battle, the Beidaopo camp has been lost, and the morale of the soldiers is unstable, you should put your mind on this. That fellow Yuan Chu should not be ready to collude with the Sui army. Stupid things."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and waved, and Li Shanchang immediately resigned.
"snort!"
After Li Shanchang left, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly snorted angrily and his face darkened.
In front of Li Shanchang just now, he looked confident on the surface and analyzed that Yuan Shao would not betray his alliance with him, but in fact he was already furious when he listened to Li Shanchang's narration of the previous events. However, he knew very well that if the news of Yuan Shao's collusion with the Sui army was spread, it would definitely severely damage the morale of his own army, and this matter did not rule out the possibility of a estrangement between the Sui army, so he pretended to be calm.
"Yuan Chu, dog thief, I hope you won't be so stupid as to lure a wolf into the house. Otherwise, even if I die, I will drag you down first, and your whole family, young and old, I will kill them all without leaving any one behind!" "
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the direction of Yuan Shao's camp to the west. While speaking through gritted teeth, he wrote down a transfer order to secretly mobilize 20,000 troops from the Central Army's camp to the left camp under Li Wenzhong's command, to guard against Yuan Shao's sudden rebellion.
. . . . . . . . . .
In the vast sea, a fleet of more than fifty warships cut through the waves and slowly approached the land.
"Ashore, land!"
On the deck, facing the sea breeze, a general wearing a bronze mask stood with his sword in his hand and ordered in a deep voice, isn't he the deputy commander of the Qingzhou Sui Army, Di Qing?
After Qin Qiong and Di Qing pacified Qingzhou, Zhu Yuanzhang sent his beloved son Zhu Di to lead an army of 50,000 to set up defenses along the Yellow River to confront Qin Qiong and Di Qing. After Yang Gao led his army in the Northern Expedition, Qin Qiong and Di Qing also raised troops to march into Hebei and fought dozens of battles with Zhu Di. The outcome was difficult to determine.
More than half a month ago, Yang Gao suddenly sent a decree, ordering Qin Qiong and Di Qing to detach a force from the sea to attack Yuan Shao's home base of Bohai County.
After Qin Qiong and Di Qing received the order, they divided up 50,000 soldiers and horses, led by Di Qing, and assisted by Qi Jiguang, Du Wei, and Wang Nannan. Under the escort of the navy, they smoothly resisted the territory of Bohai County.
"Soldiers are very fast. The whole army sets off immediately. The target is Xinyang County! Those who fall behind will be killed!" After landing, after a simple rest, Di Qing ordered the whole army to set off and rush to Xinyang County, the seat of Bohai County.
In Yangxin County, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops came to the city a few months ago and the city was under martial law. However, as Zhu Yuanzhang and Yuan Shao reconciled their alliance and jointly went south to resist the Sui army, the defense of Yangxin County was relaxed. After all, there were Zhu and Yuan's 250,000 coalition troops in front, and the Sui army could not reach here for a while.
Night shrouded the county town, and the streets were empty, except for the occasional sight of a few patrols passing by.
Suddenly, more than twenty figures suddenly emerged from several small alleys. They were agile and flexible, avoiding the patrolling soldiers and quickly approaching the South City Gate.
Several soldiers guarding the city gate seemed to have noticed something unusual. They were about to open their mouths to speak, but unexpectedly, the black figures moved very quickly. In the blink of an eye, they had already thrown themselves in front of the gate guards, covered their mouths, and raised their swords. , immediately ended the lives of several guards.
"superior!"
With a soft shout, more than twenty black figures clung to the wall, walked softly along the corridor to the city wall, and used the same method to deal with several guards on the city. Then slowly lower the suspension bridge and open the city gate.
"Kill!"
The Sui army, which had been waiting outside the city for a long time, immediately launched into action. King Xiong rarely took the lead, followed closely by five thousand fine cavalry, rushing through the city gate like a whirlwind.
The rumble of horse hoofs woke up the guards who were resting in the tower. They rushed out in a hurry, but how could they have time at this time? Qi Jiguang had already led a group of soldiers and horses to rush to the city wall, slashing with his sword. Within a moment, all the more than a hundred soldiers fell into a pool of blood.
"General Di, General Di."
Di Qing had just entered the city on horseback when a shout suddenly came from the corner of the city. A man walked out of the shadows. Under the light of the fire, his face could be seen clearly. It was Liu Heitai who had been defeated by Zhu Yuanzhang and whose whereabouts had been unknown for a long time.
Liu Heitai walked up to Di Qing with a smile on his face, raised his hands and said, "General Di, I have captured Xinyang County for you as agreed, I don't know."
Di Qing waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, General Liu. The emperor has promised you a thousand pieces of gold, and what he promised you will naturally come true. Now, General, you are the new Bohai County Governor!"
"That's great!" Liu Heitai laughed happily, but a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.
Di Qing smiled slightly, as if he didn't notice Liu Heitai's change, and continued: "General Liu, no, Taishou Liu. This time the emperor ordered us to go out across the sea to capture the Bohai Sea, and also asked us to capture the elders of Yuan Chu's family. Xiao Fang continues to drive a wedge between Zhu and Yuan. However, the soldiers under my command are new to this place and do not know the way. In order to prevent the Yuan family from escaping, please ask the eunuch to lead people to arrest the Yuan family."
Liu Heitai was immediately overjoyed when he heard this. Yuan Shao was originally from a wealthy family. In recent years, he has been occupying the Bohai Sea and must have gained a lot of benefits from other wealthy families. Wouldn't he make a fortune by arresting his family? Immediately he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, General Di. I will definitely hand over all the Yuan family members to the general's hands one by one!"
Looking at Liu Heitai's retreating back, Di Qing's eyes showed a little chill, and he couldn't help but recall the last paragraph of Yang Gao's secret decree that day: "Liu Heitai is very ambitious. In the past, he competed with Zhu Yuanzhang for the master of Hebei. . Today I have just surrendered, but before I have achieved any success, I plan to leave the town. It is clear that I don’t want to be monitored by me in front of me. If this person is left behind, there will be no peace in Hebei!"
